We introduce different diffuse approximations of the Willmore energy and the corresponding gradient flows. In the case of well separated interfaces all these flows (formally) converge to the Willmore flow. However, if interfaces collide the different approximations show very different behavior. This will be discussed in view of the Gamma converg...

We present a distributed computation mechanism of persistent homology using cellular cosheaves. Our construction is an extension of the generalized Mayer-Vietoris principle to filtered spaces obtained via a sequence of spectral sequences. We discuss a general framework in which the distribution scheme can be adapted according to a user-specific ...
